So late posting this week. Having a hard time getting my **** in gear. Do you have days like that? I hate it when that happens.
On the bright side though, I am counting my pennies to see if I have enough moolah to go the WIFYR conference in June. I'm drooling at the possiblity. This is such a fabulous opportunity for picture book authors and illustrators, and it is practically in my backyard. I have been twice and I loved it.
Of course, it's not just for picture book authors, but they do have a fabulous picture book class taught by a fabulous picture book author. Not many conferences cater to us picture book people. WIFYR stands for Writing and Illustrating for Young Readers, so that covers a lot of territory. There are lots of good classes to choose from.
This year, there is also a fabulous writing contest. The prize is $1,000. Wouldn't that make your day. If you want to find out more, check here, or here.
When is the conference? Where? June 18 - 22. Sandy, UT.
Count your pennies. Maybe you can go too.

That's my favorite conference! I'm so sad I'm missing it this year. But maybe next year I'll make it again. You'll have to let me know if you are going. Love it!
